Show Notes

Time travel back to 2001 for lunch with science fiction Grand Master Samuel R. Delany at Bistro Bis in Washington, D.C.'s Hotel George as we discuss the 25th anniversary edition of his magnum opus Dhalgren, the "sheer madness" of trying to write such a book in the first place, the state of the science fiction field during the mid-'70s, the joys he receives from teaching, and much more.
